That’s exactly what needs to be done!! I wish we could sit down with Trump and tell him just that.

It’s no fun paying for free shit for criminal invading hoards.

It’s also no fun burying Family that were victims of repeatedly deported Criminal Aliens.

A FReeper from a few years back used to regularly post somethig to the effect that “If your business model depends on illegals, I don’t give a d@mn if you go out of business. I have no sympathy.”

No...sorry. It was my tablet and a bad connecting. However, that comment bears repeating. Do I get an award for most-repetitive post?

Whatever happened to the “Guest Worker” program? Bring them in, pick, sent ‘em back.

Or just change the tax code so that employees without US citizenship, residency, or a work permit have to pay much higher taxes, along with their employers. So, for example, why not have them pay FICA rates of 50% with the employer share equal to 45%. Then all the farms and other employers of illegal workers can just send the extra money to the IRS every month. And if they don’t, then they can deal with the IRS, who will surely figure out a way to collect the money.

And no need for a court action either, just pay or lose your farm or business to the IRS.

He has to renew his passport to get back INTO mexico? BS. Just plain BS. Throw their asses out. We can milk our own cows. The more we will pay for hiring US workers or strictly controlling labor visas will easily be made up in savings for welfare programs.

We are not deporting undocumented workers just illegal aliens. People with documentation problems can stay, they just need to work that out with their employee. People breaking the law have to leave.

Trump and Republicans should just call out the Dishonest media's propaganda and declare they will not deport anyone who simply has a documentation problem. Only illegal aliens.

Let them fight out whether or not we are lying and expose the dishonesty of their own PC definition of illegal alien.

You can hire undocumented immigrants they just have to be legally in the country and entitled to work.

If INS or the state lost your green card or birth certificate documentation that is on them. Just produce your copy, or a parents.
